It feels like the start of the end of lockdown. Things are opening up again, and rules are being relaxed, and even the most vulnerable people are being told they’ll be back to work by August. And so, lockdown is ending. Over the last few days, I’ve had...

One of my lockdown discoveries: I love reading blogs. I’m absolutely LOVING my daily 5 minutes reading The SHU Box, that’s my favourite. I also read Laura Vanderkam, Grateful Kae, and Lag Liv. I love the Heart Breathings updates too, but she does a lot by...

What are we on, week 6 or 7?! Who knows any more. It’s definitely been a rollercoaster for us all. High emotions and uncertainty and boredom and a gradual adjustment to this temporary normal. We haven’t had *that* many plans cancelled so far… we had...

So April was the first full month of COVID19 lockdown. I’d love to say only full month of lockdown, but I don’t see things opening up here (England) in May. I read a lot, and partly that was because I was deliberately trying to leave my phone alone and...
